[Nix-dev] [Nix-commits] [NixOS/nixos] cd5134: Add rngd service.

[Shea Levy]

Argh, thanks. rngd has three possible sources of randomness, and two of 
them of devices (the third is a special x86 instruction). Ideally it 
would listen to uevents if those devices don't exist when it starts, 
I've disabled it by default while I investigate how hard that patch will be.
